Hello everyone,
Thanks for your interest in joining the Penn Badminton Club! We are an SCC-recognized, student-run sports club here on campus with a Competitive Team (“A-Team”) and a Recreational Team (“B-Team”).
We will be having tryouts for the Competitive Team on Tuesday, September 14. No tryouts are necessary to play recreationally if you are an undergraduate student, but graduate students will be placed on a wait list for the Recreational Team. Should you fail to make the Competitive Team, you will be automatically considered for the Recreational Team.
Please see below for information about our two upcoming events.
1. Open play session for all interested in joining the club

Location: Hutchinson Gym Basketball Court #1. Enter through Hutch main doors, go up stairs, go in the first door on your right.
